Below is an e-mail received from Lee, W4EDE, posted with his permission.
He did want me to make clear that these are his personal feelings.

Hi Bob,

I enjoyed making your acquaintance in the BWQP...We had a brief chat
after I asked you for your number and you told me you didn't have one,
that you weren't an FOC member.

It makes me feel good to know that you were able to see  (hear) the
elitist tag we've gotten really isn't deserved.  I really didn't know
who you were but saw that you were making a serious effort to work as
many FOC members as possible...and I heard you everywhere I went with
excellent operating skills and fist.  And more importantly, all of us
came back to you very readily.

So..."SOC" ... Nuts!  Nothing second class in my estimation.
You frankly cracked me up with the tongue in cheek!
We're not the stuffy bunch a lot of folks would have us be.

Hope to see you again on the air soon.

Best wishes,

Lee W4EDE
